FBI Probing HUD Secretary

| 1 Comment

ewww, that's a nasty thought. Don't they know not to oil the probe shaft?

The FBI is examining the ties between Housing Secretary Alphonso Jackson and a friend who was paid $392,000 by Jackson's department as a construction manager in New Orleans, three federal law enforcement officials said Thursday.

Jackson's friend got the job after the HUD secretary asked a staff member to pass along his name to the Housing Authority of New Orleans, a spokesman for Jackson said in a statement.

These have nothing really to do with another whiff of corruption in Bush's cabinet, but somehow seem still relevant. Perhaps the late hour?

I think it was worth a post. I really feel sorry for New Orleans and for the bridge in MN.
